How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A delirious creature feature that mashes up urban crime thriller with Aztec mythology, delivering genuine suspense and B-movie charm. It's gleefully pulpy and weirdly effective, unfolding at a brisk pace that keeps you gripped by the absurdity of its central premise.

Over all it isn’t a BAD movie, it is just a little… loose.
Some scenes feel out of place while others just sort of stop before they feel they should.
Moriarty’s character is the best thing about this film, IMO. If the effects were as good as he was, this would have really been something.
